Mood: Strong. I have been introduced to Greyskull LP. Honestly, if I had known about this before SL, I would have started on it. Here’s what I love about it: AMRAP (As Many Reps As Possible) – Your last set is as many sets as you can do before technical failure. (If I you are […]

Mood: Alive with pleasure. There is something amazing about training before you have to start your day. You walk out of the gym full of cheer and happiness and ready to take on your day. Here’s the workout: Warm-ups: Squats 45# + 85# OHP 45# 65# Deadlifts 135# 225# Training: Supersets High Bar Barbell Back […]

Mood: Deload or not deload, that is the question. After two not-as-awesome training days this week, I contemplating deloading or even cutting my Squats down to 3×5. But a friend reminded that I am not failing on the Main lifts. So keep going. And going I shall. Here’s the workout: Warm-ups: Squats 45# 2×5; 95# […]

Mood: Not my strongest. I went in just wiped out. Usually, when that happens, I get a boost just walking into the gym. But the energy wasn’t there. I had to end up cutting back on warmups and accessory lifts. But I got my Mains in. Here’s the workout: Warm-ups: Squats 45# 2×5; 95#x5; 125#x3 […]

Mood: Sleepy. But that’s why God made preworkout. I had a feeling that my workout was going to be cut short so I cut out the Barbell Row. No tears were lost. I slept well that night. This Bubs woke up right after my 3rd Kroc Row set. I’m slain. Seriously, this is way too […]

Mood: In Love. How do I love the Kroc Row? Lemme count the ways. I notice my love for the Kroc Row intensifies partially due to the fact that I hate the Barbell Row. I hate the Barbell Row so much I decided to skip ahead two workouts and added on 10+ on the first […]

Mood: Intrigued. Last Wednesday, I did my usually 3×5 Deadlifts (because I am not going to be restricted to just one). Then the next day, I felt my lats. Then that “feeling” spread all over my lats. Some would call it pain. I don’t think it was pain. I think it was because I seriously […]

Mood: Super tough. After the last two training days of super-awesomeness, this one was a struggle. One, I can feel my lats. So anything to do with the lower back (which is everything) could be felt in the lower back. I even skipped Lat Pulls because I didn’t “want” to over do it. In hindsight, […]
